Do you agree on adding random blood testing for all fights?

[Telepath]

Since I assume you meant "for all professional fights", I voted yes.

I don't really think there's a need to be that stringent when it comes to lower-level amateur bouts, and if you're talking about high-level amateur stuff, I think it's in place there already, but correct me if I'm wrong.

All professional fights. Perhaps to lower the expense all championship fights especially mega fights.

Your a funny guy. LMAO.. hahaha He just don't wanna waste any urine he has. He needs to recycle it.

all big fights, yes.

not all fights though... that would cost too much resources.

Of course if I'm paying my $60 for PPV or Over $300 to watch it live the least I want is to know that both boxers are fighting on a level playing field. Random blood tests also elimanates all doubts or thought of HGH.

There definitely should be, not necessarily blood tests, just anything that is required to catch things other than steroids such as HGH etc. If that needs a blood test, then so be it. Just as long as it's stringent, and could detect all, or most, drugs.

The problem arises where in some countries, the testing won't be as readily available and stringent, so in those countries, this could be a problem. I'm assuming all of the major organisations could easily implement blood testing, and I think they'd have to be a big part of it if it were to work.

But initially, all fights involving top 10 fighters should be tested, including all championship matches, mandatory fights etc, and then role it out from there.

I think we can suggest it for mega fights and all championship fights.

I had a thought a few minutes ago that might work if the major sanctioning bodies would get together on this. To be in the top 10 of any of the major alphabets a fighter has to agree to random tests all year with a 5 day cutoff before the fight, but a test immediately after as well. If the fighter won't do it, he doesn't get ranked and will therefore never become a champion.

Makes sense to me anyway.

I touched on this in my post above, that basically it would require the sactioning bodies for it to work fully. You post here is what should actually happen, this is an excellent idea.
